Skeptic: Promoting Science and Critical Thinking

• A video tribute to James Randi with clips of highlights from his remarkable career, including escape artist (see Randi dangling over Niagara Falls in a straight jacket), magician (see Randi make things disappear and wow television reporters with his magic), television celebrity (see Randi in the chair next to Johnny Carson talking about skepticism), debunker (see Randi bust televa ngelist Peter Popoff, who was scamming audiences with clever tricks that Randi exposed on national television), and the educator (see Randi excite students with the wonders of science and skepticism).
• An “in conversation” dialogue with Michael Shermer and Randi on skepticism, science, and magic
• A lively audience Q & A in which Randi was challenged by and then hugged on stage by an audience member, and in which Randi delivered one of the most emotionally poignant answers ever given to the question “what’s the harm?” (of people believing in the paranormal and pseudoscience).

Randi delivers in every way on this wonderful DVD.
